Why can't liberals be capitalists? Just a thought, I'll try and elaborate more later.

You make a good point. Liberals could and probably should be capitalists.

Liberals can be capitalists... Please elaborate why you think they can't.

I'm not sure I see the connection -- aren't these mostly independent concepts?

I lean left yet believe strongly in the power of markets. But, like most rational thinkers, I believe relatively little is best in purified form -- "market forces" by themselves can't solve all the world's social ills, nor can social forces alone ensure effective economic systems.
